retenir (in this context)
This is from a patient report of a man who has had an aortic valve replacement:
Le patient bénéficie d'un remplacement valvulaire aortique par voie fémorale gauche (pas d'indication retenue à un remplacement chirurgical).

Thanks!

i imagine the author is trying to differentiate between "remplacement valvulaire" and "remplacement chirurgical"
Peer comment(s):

Michael Barnett
